Description I meant to upload this weeks ago.. but I got busy.

This was a submission to the Sakura Con mascot contest for 2008. There's a lot of reasons I'm sure why it didn't win, but I don't really care because I still had fun drawing her.

In the end I'm glad I didn't win after hearing about how poorly this years mascot contest winner was treated.

Anyway, it's a just a random creation, a Dryad of the Sakura, enjoy!

I've looked at the rest of the entries; this one deserved to win.

Thanks!

I don't want to go into huge detail about it, there was just a lot of disorganization that left the winner without a table, badge, and various other things that she was supposed to have.

hehe, I explained this several times to other people, but long story short, she was just treated like crap. They didn't have a badge or table for the winner, and had some other artist make chibi versions of her character.

It makes me curious, what happened to the winner?

bluessence In reply to Tsunami-Yusa [2007-05-18 23:12:23 +0000 UTC]

They had somebody else do chibi versions of her character so her actual art wasn't even used on the T-shirt (or the badge I think...?) anyway, they also didn't have her registered, so when she got there, they had no badge or table for her.

Anyway, glad you like!

Oh man this is gorgoeus. I love her pose and her generall color scheme. But man the shading is AMAZINg. Its really bold and vibrant. I love her kimono it doesn't exactly loojk like a traditional one but it still looks really cool.
The umbrella is amazing too!

Good job.

Yep yep, that's exactly what I was going for, Bold yet soft, with a design that reminded you of traditional outfits but wasn't... XD

glad you like it!
